Why Sony is going to hell

[BLINGMW]

I'm certianly not a marketing guru, but I agree that Sony's in for a big awakening if they expect people to pay that much for a dedicated gaming machine when you could get a nice, up-to-date gaming PC for the same $. How are they even convincing developers that anyone's going to buy the thing? Unless it has just some incredible and innovative games that you just can't get on a PC (or xBox), then I think the market for it is going to be VERY small. And yes, I agree, the "it's also a cheap blu-ray player" arguement is so weak... again, a VERY small group of people will care at all. The only way you can convince people to get into proprietary equipment is if it does something nothing else can do or does something significantly better. I hate to say it, but IMHO Microsoft already won this round before Sony even got out of the gates. Sad. I hope they can recover someday so we don't have to hail Microsoft in yet another market segment.
